-
Step 1:
-
Pour It
-
Pour a small amount - approximately 2 ounces - of wine into the appropriate wine glass.
-
Step 2:
-
Swirl It
-
Make small concentric circles with your glass to expose the wine to air, which will enhance its taste. For advanced tasters, swirl your wineglass in the air to aerate it.
-
Step 3:
-
Smell It
-
Put your nose right into your wine glass to get the wine's full aroma. That's right, the nose into the glass. Inhale, and consider the wine's scents.
-
Step 4:
-
Taste It
-
Take a sip of wine into your mouth, then gurgle it, inhaling while you do, to aerate the wine even further. If you're facing a long night of tasting, you may want to spit the wine out after this step. If not, drink up and enjoy!
